Striped Whistler and Chiggen Egg just make me smile! These quikis are Great Paips!
there's something to be said about the epic grand pieces...although they take the most time and thought and produce remarkable results,sometimes the immediacy is lost...that first few hours of newness with a drawing before the painting(to use your analogy)sometimes captures all the beauty and wonder of the labor-intensive pieces...I've got a 5 foot Last Judgement piece that shrinks before some half hour ink drawings....I guess artists have to balance between the immediate inspiration and the well thought out works! Thanks so much for sharing not only your works ,but your thoughts as well! Now where can I buy my Paipo CoffeeTable Book? :)
